The Shadow Pokémon distributed via e-Reader cards were {{p|Mareep}}, {{p|Togepi}}, and {{p|Scizor}}. | |||

* If a Pokémon is traded from Pokémon XD to a GBA game and then to this game, the caught location will most likely be displayed as [[Mt. Battle]], regardless of where it was actually caught in [[Orre]], even if it was caught in an area accessible in the game, because both games use [[List of locations by index number (Orre)|exactly the same internal index list for locations]].
